HISTORY OF LUBRICANTS

Ever since the advancement into the lube oil business in 1989, S-OIL has not only expanded its product portfolio to meet the market demand, but also engaged in continuous technology development and active marketing activities to establish itself as a leader in the lubricant oil market. We have also developed the most advanced lubrication technology and world-class management by entering into a technical partnership with Japan’s Idemitsu Kosan and building a joint venture with France’ TOTAL. Since going into the production of ‘aramcoULTRA’ in 2002 which is the VHVI class base oil for lubricating oils, S-OIL has become a main lube base oil supplier in the world. Based on dynamic capabilities built for the past 25 years, we are trying to become the world’s best lubricant company with the launch of ‘S-OIL SEVEN,’ the 100% synthetic lubricant brand.
